Hi guys,

I've had a very busy off-season in my personal life - lots of tragedies.

It has also been filled up with the cricket and soccer seasons - and my regular fishing expeditions, and shall continue to do so until the season starts!

Looking forward to another exciting season. And the first point I'd like to make out this year is that Ricciardo was almost a second faster than Algeursuari. He has to get a start this year. Maybe in the 5th race of the season....

I expected more enthusiasm. That's standard...even if the car feels like crap I dont think McLaren would allow Lewis to say "This car doesnt feel as good as our car which was developed 1 year ago."

Are you surprised it's McLaren? How long before RB come along with theirs. It's a feature ALL cars went without last year because of the necessary testing required for the rims to pass, but I fully expected this year to either have all cars be without it, or most cars be with it. Based on the rule changes thought I thought they were banned!

Did Ferrari ever release any number as to how much of an advantage they were? A handful of seconds total per race?

My boy my dawg my homeslice at the top !!!!

I know it's only testing but maybe it shows Merc has definitely improved their package?
